How to wear coloured jeans

Spring is finally upon us and that means it's time to add some much needed colour into our wardrobes. What better way to add a splash of spring than some brightly coloured jeans!

The tricky part is to know what to wear with them once you've bought them but fear not it's actually quite straightforward. Here's how to wear coloured jeans.

First things first opt for a denim cut that you know suits your shape. I love a skinny jean because being petite (I'm 5ft 2in) I feel it gives the illusion that I've got longer legs and tends to give me some curves (bonus!)

Now you've got the fit it's all about which colour to pick. If you're a colour newbie and the thought of anything other than your classic indigo denims scare you then stick to the darker denims such as reds, burgundy and purples. Teamed with a block coloured neutral top (white, black, grey) and a classic blazer or leather jacket. Wear with some cute ballet pumps, trainers or a smarter black ankle boot.
